Everything AA 12+

Thank you for supporting us too!

I relapsed during the shutdown…I’m an RN first sober in 1992 when I was confronted by my fellow nurses (in a loving but deadly serious way) and dove head first into recovery via invitations from Board of Nursing.
Thank you HP! I’m the oldest child in a large dysfunctional family, parents had emotional/marital problems and divorced after 13 years leaving kids and mom befuddled and dirt poor. I relapsed during the pandemic (imagine that!) after 25 years and I found myself in the desert alone with my BB. This was the app I purchased after deciding it was time to stop, again…MY HP was there too and I’m here one day at a time almost 4 years later.
My distant friend who suddenly called wondering if I’m alright is now my sponsor and WE use the app daily in our communications and practice by reading and sharing daily.
Thank you for carrying the message in such a cool way. I absolutely love that approved literature is available at a touch, to augment my program in multiple ways. We always start the day by reading the day’s Daily Reflection and first one online shares with the other, indicating a good nights’ rest clean and sober.
Happy travels on that road to serenity and joy that is our birthright. I for one believe that HP IS here for us. Today.

Reflecting

I am a member of Al-Anon for the last 35 years. I have been going to a lot of open AA meetings almost daily from last November to now -April 16, 2023, while on vacation. I’m so grateful for AA and Al-Anon. We will be married 54 years coming up on April 26. I have learned a lot from these AA meetings- such as the closeness and loving support shown to each other; the desire to see each member grow and become all that they are meant to be. The stark honesty in sharing; the laughter that reduces the heavy weight- bearing of shame and guilt; the humility that comes from surrendering self from “not my will but Thy will”. It truly is a spiritual program where God (H. P.) is honored and man is right-positioned and enabled to be of help and service to God and to his fellow
man.
I’m so proud and happy to be a part of this great fellowship -AA and Al-Anon, for truly Alcoholism is a family disease and I feel my God has provided a redeemed and happy way to live and be in this world and in the world to come. What else could we ask for?
Sincerely, Judyj

A Pause

Having 14,000 some days of sobriety within AA, I love the physical books. What a surprise it came for me to be able to use this app and pause in the middle of the day in the middle of nowhere and read the literature. To see my days of sobriety as a masthead on the app to add warmth and personalizing it to make me keen to dig in! It’s those small touches that draw me closer to AA such as when people said, Hi Diane! after I identified myself as an alcoholic. Before I got this app in February 2022, I never knew how many days I had. And as I have said, that information is emblazoned as on writing paper on the tippy top. As though the literature were written explicitly for me. As the Beatles once said to encourage each other in their early days, “Let’s go to the toppermost of the poppermost.” The beautiful design of this app is Good Orderly Direction indeed. It’s a humble app and a refuge in time of need to encourage us to humbly go to the toppermost of the poppermost one day of sobriety at a time.
